Poseída por la misma pulsión de Sherezade, Isak Dinesen nos sumerge en un relato que se prolonga a lo largo de páginas encantadas: el de su vida en África y el de la vida de los que la rodeaban, europeos o somalíes, kikuyus o masais.

Pero, a pesar de todo, no se puede hablar de autobiografía: de una u otra forma, la autora permanece al margen de la narración y cede el papel protagonista a quien nunca ha dejado de tenerlo: la vida, siempre persa, indomable, cruel y tierna.
